Who uses power conditioning?

Audience aR6 TSSD w/AU24SEi cable.  In my room and system I hear what I perceive as an improvement over direct to wall. 

I am using a Furman Elite 15 Power Factor and have for the last 8 years with great effect, with that said I upgraded to Furmans Reference 15 six years ago and could not get it out of the system fast enough, just drained the emotion out of the music so I went back to the Elite 15 and have been very satisfied as my system building has come to an end except for any component failures and they are addressed at time of need. I have just assembled a headphone system upstairs and added a turntable, I purchased a 6 outlet Cullen Cable power box with his hard wired power cord and am very satisfied with that but it has no surge protection. Happy listening

I use two Shunyata Hydra 4 power conditioners and a Shunyata Hydra 2 in my main rig and a Furutech E-TP80 power conditioner in my second rig.  Very happy with the results. 

My room was originally built with standard house wiring. Standard circuit, went from outlet to outlet before finally getting to the one my system plugs into. Well this was a long time ago, back when I thought it mattered but not with enough conviction to go up against all the people telling me a dedicated line is a waste.

Over the years this was upgraded. First with a dedicated larger line. Then with the same wire changed to a 240v circuit with a step-down transformer. Then with all the wire pulled, cryo'd and replaced. Which now is hard-wired into a Bybee power conditioner. With an assortment of quality outlets.

This all went on over a period of nearing on 30 years now. That for me is how long this question of cables and power conditioners has been answered. 

Drawing power from the wall "as is"? Right. Might as well ask how many are using freebie power cords. Patch cords. Fuses. Cue Colonel Kurtz: The horror. The horror.

I do. My current thinking is here:
